Climate change is already making it dangerous to work outdoors and in factories in India — and we’re not even st 1.5C yet. “Summers have gotten so much worse in the past five years that…she ends up losing a week’s worth of work each month because of dehydration and vomiting.”

Extreme heat can kill you fast with a heat stroke or heart attack. But it can also kill you slowly with lost wages, kidney problems and UTIs, and psychological stress. In India, millions of women in the informal economy bear the worst of it. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/16/w...

Starbucks workers in the US are on strike. Think twice before you pop in to grab a peppermint mocha. Respect the picket line and help workers secure a fair deal. Worker rights anywhere are worker rights everywhere. jacobin.com/2025/11/star...

This is could well be a historic midterm for Democrats. Don’t waste it on centrists who won’t come through when it matters. Run vocal progressives. You won’t end Trumpism without anti-corruption crusaders and warriors for social and economic justice who believe in taxes & big, universal programs.

Drivers: I know you think you’re doing cyclists a favour by stopping & waving us through an intersection while you’ve got right of way, but you really aren’t. You’re being unpredictable and screwing up the flow of traffic for everyone and just causing further delays for us to safely cross. Stop it.

LOOK AT THIS CREATURE. There's a reason this was my spark birb as a young kid. 🥰

With current pledges, the world's on track for 2.6°C of warming in 2100 compared to preindustrial levels. 10 years ago, before the Paris agreement, it was 3.6°C 20+ years ago, we thought it would be 4-5°C So 2.6°C is better, but the problem is that climate impacts are way worse than we predicted.

They wanted to host to highlight the real impacts of climate change........

(I am here. I'd say conditions are uncomfortable. For people with health issues, or in especially hot or wet locations in the venue, I can believe that rises to dreadful)

Less harsh cold? Later freezes? Not as many freezes? Shorter cold streaks?! It might sound nice, but cold weather matters — for snowfall, water supplies, winter sports, and the ecosystems that depend on them. Those impacts can ripple into spring and summer. youtu.be/H3XJsEWtYjg

A @washingtonpost.com analysis of changing global precipitation patterns explains what people in Appalachia already know: The region has become a dangerous hot spot of intensifying rainfall.

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it. All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference. Tanks

It might be true that the world needs to remove ten billion tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere every year but it’s never going to happen for many different reasons: technical, financial, social, environmental, governance, etc. If we don’t reduce CO₂ emissions, we’re screwed. That’s it.

The tragedy of thinking the climate of the past is any guide to the climate of our superheated future: “This was an unprecedented, once-in-a-thousand-year event, that nobody thought was even possible,” a Camp Mystic attorney said. “It’s never happened before.” www.cnn.com/2025/11/10/u...

The super typhoon has left devastation in the Philippines just days after another typhoon killed 232 people.

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months" China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

Torrential rainfall in the Brazilian city of Belem flooded pavements outside the venue for the #COP30 climate talks. Scientists say climate change is making extreme weather events more common.

Nooooooo.

Lest we forget as COP30 begins in the Amazon that just over a week ago tech behemoth Nvidia was selling AI for oil and gas expansion to Brazilian state-owned oil giant Petrobras....

Since 1990, the emissions share of the richest 1% has increased by 13%, and the richest 0.1% has grown by 32%, while the poorest 50% has decreased by 3%. policy-practice.oxfam.org/resources/cl...

Invasive mosquitoes with avian malaria threaten Hawaiʻi's native honeycreepers. Conservationists are using drones and helicopters to release lab-reared male mosquitoes carrying a Wolbachia bacterium strain that causes non-viable eggs when they mate with wild females to control mosquito populations.
